I don't want to double click the downloaded file in that open window. I want that the downloaded file to open automacally when download is completed.

How to open pdf or fdf file through firefox 3.0.5?

Hi all,
I am trying to open a fdf file through firefox in linux machine by clicking the link on that it wants to open a fdf file from remote location. When I am trying to open then it will show an error message in error console like:
Security Error: Content at http://172.16.3.116:8080/ManuscriptScreening/source/journal/ProductionEntry.jsp may not load or link to smb://editor:edit*[email protected]/Copyediting/ELS/Manuscript_Screening/MS/RDTEST/02-Process/RDTEST-D-08-10245.fdf
Can any body give me a solution for this problem? I am using smb to fetch files from server. In my linux machine we are using Adobe Acrobat 5.0 professional version and also Adobe Reader 8. The link is available in jsp page.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] 
 
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. 
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

What makes a file open automatically after download? I'm trying to stop it. I don't know whether Firefox or Sumatra controls this.

When I downloaded a .pdf file, it opens automatically after download. I want to put it back to where I have to click on it in the download window in order to open it.
This happens with every .pdf file I download.
I am using Sumatra 1.5.1 to view pdf files.

Change the '''Action''' for that file type.

Firefox4 always cannot remember how to open these types of file

When I download certain types of file, for example, .rar file, firefox4 always cannot remember how to open these types of file next time. The check box “automatically use the same method to handle the file” in the download popup window looks grey and cannot be checked. Also, these types never appear in the list of option-application. I check previously installed firefox 3.6, these types are all called (application/***). What’s more, when I want to turn off computer, as long as firefox 4 is opened, it will lose response and prevent Windows from turning off. Whatever I do, reinstalling firefox, deleting profile and even reinstall Windows, I cannot get rid of those issues. I think these are bugs of firefox4. I hope they will be fixed as soon as possible.

Purchase a legal copy of Windows instead of attempting to pirate it. You will then have the installation disks you'll need and won't have to worry about opening Torrent files.

How to get path of downloaded file?

Hi,
I use JDeveloper 11g with ADF.
I have to download file with original date. If i want to save date i have to zip file. After that to unzip. My queation is: when clien download file how to get path of downloaded file????
Because, i want to save unziped file on location where client want to download.

Hi,
you cannot download a file directly to a client. If this is a requirement then you need a signed Java Applet to handle the download. Otherwise a download dialog is opened for the user to define where to store the file.

How do I move a downloaded file (from YouTube) to GarageBand so as to separate video from audio, then send audio to iTunes?

How do I move a downloaded file (from You Tube) to Garagband - so as to separate video from audio (which I will send to iTunes)

Create a new GarageBand "Movie" project, then import your movie into GarageBand, by dragging it from the "Movies" tab of the Media Browser into the Timeline. GarageBand will split the movie into a video channel and an audio channel. Delete the video/movie channel and use the "Share" menu to send the audio channel to iTunes (assuming you have iLife '11 GarageBand)

Doug's got it right. It sounds like you are trying to open a later version file in an earlier version. This will always be handled as opening the PDF portion of the file. Try Googling AI_openMultiPagePDF for a script to open these or Resave from the newer version to the older.

Cannot open downloaded files from Firefox or IE, but can in Google Chrome?

When I download files in Firefox and IE, it either fails to complete downloading them stating that they have some sort of virus, or they show complete but none of them actually save. When I try to open the link in the downloads window, they do nothing, and right clicking shows "Open" and "Open Containing Folder" are greyed out. I do not have any of these problems with Google Chrome, and I would rather use Mozilla. I have tried many basic fixes I have found and nothing seems to work.

It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files. 
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"

How can I automatically create the files with serie-name?

Hello, Everyone,
I have a question again.
How can I automatically create the file with a serie-filename?
e.g. I have a program, it will repeat 5 times, and every time it will create a bmp-file, and I want to let this program automatically save these 5 files with a Serie-filename like File001.bmp, File002.bmp, .... File005.bmp.
How can I do it?`
Thanks a lot.
Regarts,
Johnny

Hi Deepu,
one more comment
The format code should be "%04d" to get leading zeros and have filenames with same length...

I am running Windows 7 and I cannnot download files from Firefox

I just got a new PC (Dell Precision M6500) with Windows 7 Ultimate and I have transferred my profile setting over from my old laptop running Windows XP Professional and now I cannot download files in Firefox. How can I fix this?

Just checking:
# Do you try to downgrade, because you had problems upgrading to the latest version? If so, have you tried the suggestions at [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]]?
# What is the actual message, when installing Firefox 3.6? Does it really mention that you need install version 10? Note that the latest version is 9.0.1.
# Did you download the installer from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html ?

How do I uninstall the download manager in Firefox

How do I uninstall the download manager in Firefox - all versions

What download manager?
If you are talking about the built-in download manager it can not be uninstalled, if it is a third party download manager, check the Firefox add-ons manager or the Windows Control panel add/remove programs to see if it is listed in either of those locations.

How can I get files to open automatically upon download?

I would like files I download to open automatically and for the download window to be turned off. I know how to turn off the download window, but cannot get files to automatically download.

Hi JJMack. Thanks for getting back to me.
I think I've created confusion about what I want. All I want is to end up with a file that is flattened so that I can save it as a tiff without getting a warning that it contains layers. Please correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve always assumed I should always flatten a file before I save it as a tiff unless I specifically want to retain layers or transparency. I’m only talking here of files that open with a single layer: ie. Layer 1. I assume that if I don’t flatten such files the resultant files will be unnecessarily big?
The only reason I keep saying I want a Background layer is that I know that a flattened file will only have a Background layer. I don’t have any desire for a Background layer per se. I certainly don’t want to add extra layers - quite the opposite.
So perhaps the question I should have asked should have been:
How can I get files to open 'ready-flattened' by default so I can save them directly to tiff without having to manually flatten them every time?
Cheers
